October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. If you know someone who has experienced the devastation of loss, there are ways to help them that are better than others. One way is to let them know about our many Walks to Remember held across Australia this October: www.sands.org.au/Event/walk-to-remember-across-australia

You might not be able to "fix" their grief, but there are certainly other ways you can help:

1) By offering to be there
2) By listening and accepting strong emotions
3) By being patient and allowing silences
4) By showing that you care
5) By offering practical support
6) By not saying “I know” or “I understand” unless you really do
7) By avoiding platitudes – “It’s God’s will”, etc.
8) By not taking anger personally
9) By encouraging people to make their own decisions, and helping them to find information
10) By taking care of yourself – knowing your limits
